Stripping membranes

I just had my membranes stripped. How long after do you start getting cramping or any results from it?

I had mine done with my last pregnancy and had it done in the afternoon by the next evening I was in full labor.  How far along are you?  I am 38wks and 3 days.

My sister had it done twice but never went into labor... And they were done a week apart.

If it works for you i think it usually occurs with in 48 hours... my sister was the same as the first post... she had hers stripped early in the day and was in the hospital in full labour that night.... good luck and i hope it brings good results and a speedy healthy delivery! :)

Did you start feeling cramping soon after? The doctor said I would get some. I had it done at 8 this morning and I feel nothing yet
